Passionfruit Flummery is a traditional dessert that is similar to a mousse or pudding. It is typically made with passion fruit pulp, lemon juice, and egg yolks for a creamy and light texture. This exotic fruit is known for its tangy and sweet flavor, and it pairs perfectly with the zesty lemon syrup to create a balanced and refreshing dessert. The gelatin in this recipe allows the Flummery to set perfectly, giving it a smooth and velvety texture. This dish is perfect for a summer party or BBQ, and it is easy to make ahead of time and store in the fridge until ready to serve.

Instructions

1.	Use a zester to scrape the peel of the lemon into a small bowl and set aside.
2.	Juice the lemon into a measuring jug and add enough water to make a cup of liquid.
3.	In a small saucepan, combine the caster sugar, 2 teaspoons of the gelatin, and the lemon peel. Add the lemon-water mixture and stir over low heat until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat and set aside.
4.	In a small heatproof bowl, dissolve the remaining 1 teaspoon of gelatin in 2 tablespoons of boiling water, stirring until smooth.
5.	Beat the egg yolks in a medium bowl and whisk in the passion fruit pulp until smooth. Add the gelatin mixture and whisk to combine.
6.	In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Fold the egg whites into the passionfruit mixture.
7.	Gradually pour in the lemon syrup while stirring constantly. Pour the mixture into a large bowl or individual glasses and chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours or until set.
8.	Serve with shortbread cookies if desired.
